I bought a 7800 due to newegg not haveing the x1950 but i don't see alot of hype about this card on newegg. So that leaves me with the question. Is everyone useing pci-e or did everyone know something i don't? So I thought i'd ask the pro's, so my question is simple. I'm running a 3200barton with 1.5gigs of ram, 76gig raptor drive (for games), and a whisper 500 psu, and atm a 7800gs oc that i can still take back for all my cash and get the x1950pro, sapphire or diamond i'm not sure of the better buy on that besides the 50$ price differance, sapphire being cheaper. So what do you guys think the x1950 or the 7800? thanks.:twitch:

The X1950 pro AGP is faster the the 7800GS OC. If you can return the card and get you mony back then the give it a try. There is one thing, Your not going to see top performance out of your X1950pro with a 3200+ Barton Socket A setup. the only improvements are going to be at high res and with all the eye candy turned on and all the way up.

HEs on AGP I would go for the 1950pro if you could do it.

Go for the Powercolor Extreme X1950PRO AGP. 7800GS is seriously crippled,

Lol The 1950Pro makes the 7900GT look slow, let alone the 7800GT
